Sold Red Phase 1 21 Turbo For Sale

Its with a very heavy heart and lack of use that i have decided to sell my 21 turbo. Only done 250 miles since buying it back in April last year. Nearly full Mot till April 16th 2016, has had new Hel red braided lines all round for mot. Also had a recent oil change with valvoline VR1 10W 60 Racing oil and wix oil filter.
Car is in really good order for a 26 year old. Rear arches are like new, and bodywork is very straight. Polishes up very nice but could do with a respray if fussy as paint is a bit thin in places from over polishing. Have waxoiled the underneath also.
Red phase 1 with Cloth interior, no rips etc. All electric windows and mirrors work including working sliding sunroof. Formally owned by Phil and previous to that was chairman Craig and below is a list of what the car has had done previous.
New head gasket.
Ported head with matched manifolds.
Head rebuilt with new valve stem oil seals etc.
New water pump.
New cam belt and auxiliary belts.
T34 rebuilt by Andy Rabson. New shaft and inlet and exhaust wheels. 360 deg bearing with staggered seals.
Silicone leads.
Silicone water hoses.
Cossie group A filter.
Brand new rear suspension.
Brand new front suspension.
New strut bearings.
Brand new 195/55 R15 Toyo proxies all round.
New discs and pads on rear, new pads on front. All mintex if I remember correctly.
Greddy Profec B electronic boost controller. The best, not the fiddly newer type just simple and extremely effective.
Smoked boost gauge.
New accelerator cable.
Scorpion exhaust straight through with font silencer removed,
with twin 3" outlet tail pipes. Sounds real deep sound.
New standard downpipe.
The turbo's exhaust housing, outlet elbow and exhaust manifold have been smoothed internally to aid exhaust flow.
Front mount forge intercooler, hidden into bumper an lower grill as best as possible. Did not want it "in your face", so does not stand out at all.
Twin spaal fans.
New header tank.
New battery and plugs about a year and a half ago.
Engine runs very well good boost , plenty of pull. Test drives are more than welcome.

Bad bits: it has a very small leak from the turbo dont know if its the turbo or the drain return blocked causing this. Have purchased a gasket for the return but have not fitted it. Pic below of where leak is ,once hot this smokes from oil burn off.DSCF3999[1].webp DSCF4008[1].webp DSCF4004[1].webp DSCF4006[1].webp DSCF4007[1].webp DSCF4005[1].webp DSCF4002[1].webp DSCF4010[1].webp DSCF4011[1].webp DSCF4012[1].webp DSCF4013[1].webp
Sorry for the long and maybe boring post. More pics available on request.
This is a clean Phase 1 which are getting very rare now with nice mods just needs little fettling.
Have had the plate valued today from Reg transfers and they would return upon sale £700 for the plate . So this could make this a cheap buy if wished to sell the plate.
My mobile is 07881463419 for any questions etc . Thanks.......
All this could be yours for - £2300

Is that the one I built for Craig? Its got one of my oil feeds I see

I believe it is Andy. I take it it had new seals etc when you built it as it has a small oil leak as per pic. Not sure if its due to the oil return feed possibly blocked or the gasket or something else. The car has only done 1700 miles since 2010 all backed by MOTs and only 250 miles last year so hardly any miles. Cheers....

Okay mate, dont know if there is a slight blockage in the oil return causing the oil to rise in turbo then seep out or if the gasket needs changing. What else could it be. Changed the oil to VR1 10w 60 to see if that would help but its still weeping, but have no oil residue whatsoever in the hoses going to the turbo .
 
Last of the pics as promised. These pics show where i have put a red stripe along window rubbers as paint was thin along the rubber. Looks tidy cant really notice . Also the small blemish on nsr door very minor not rusted through. Also some signs of thin paint on bonnet as shown in pic. Thanks.......DSCF4017[1].webp DSCF4018[1].webp DSCF4019[1].webp DSCF4024[1].webp DSCF4025[1].webp DSCF4028[1].webp DSCF4029[1].webp DSCF4030[1].webp
